That's the same problem solved by every tunnel, isn't it?

There is nothing unique about "inter-site" tunnels - all tunnels that
carry IP qualify.

Endpoint mobility might be the new part, but in that case I'm not seeing
how this is a new problem (vs. any other sort of endpoint mobility,
e.g., use HIP, mobile IP, etc.). If that's the new part, it seems like
it belongs in a mobility WG, not here....

That is close to what I was asking, but I'm not sure I see the answer yet...
